What do I need to wire spoon style power mirrors (4 wires, one brown, one blue, one black, and one white) into my 99 non-power hatch without the floor harness?

I need:
-power mirrors
-power switch

what else? And once i have what i need, how do i wire it?


thanks in advance for any help

you need a relay, some wire and a wiring diagram and some patience.

I did power folding mirrors- took about two hours and it was a bitch but kindof worth it

for a diagram search "power folding mirror diagram" under the 92-00 civic section

So I use the power folding diagram even though I don't have power folding mirrors?

my bad- im an idiot

yes you can use the power folding diagram but there is one for plain power windows

here is the thread i found https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1140490

the image is down but if you pm monicle he will rehost it

you need power folding mirrors, wires, relay and a switch and yes patience is needed to..

Best bet is to go to your local junkyard and scavenge all the parts you need or at least the pigtails from all the components.

I have a JDM CTR power folding mirror switch along with the wiring and relay...should I just use this?

monicle

a relay is only used for the folding option. you will not use it in a standard power mirror install

alright, so then i cant use the pre-wired ctr stuff i have?

monicle

sure, just dont use the relay and forget that the fold button is there.

Hmm, I'll just have to pm you when i get all the parts I need. I have the mirrors, and I'm getting the oem mirror switch soon...and i will use the ctr pigtail (not the ctr one...although i do have that one as well). Thats it for parts, other than wiring, correct?

monicle

get a blade fuse tap so that you can wire power into the fuse box. you can pick them up at radioshack usually

alacard

Is that what its called? "blade fuse tap"...are there any different kinds or something i should look for? or will they know what i mean when i go in there asking for a blade fuse tap?

monicle

they look like this

the tap goes on the gounded blade of the fuse. you use that for your power source.
